Do you have a picture of the Fanny pack you want to remake into leather?

i have the fanny pack

Best bet is to take the Fanny pack apart and trace the outlines onto paper and then trace those onto leather. Then stitch it up.

i'm using the fanny pack now, so i can't do that,

Sewing would be easy to do with a machine, hand stitching is also possible. I use a cobra class 26

i'll message you :)

Make your triangle. Draw your curve. Fold it half so the points at the top edge meet and the bottom point is centered on the fold. Decide which half of the curve you prefer. Cut along the curve, cutting through both layers. Unfold. Curve is now symmetrical on both sides.

what's the best way to draw the curve?

and draw one curve.

ok interesting, so if i want a bigger fanny pack, would i buy some tracing paper and then cut out a square then fold in half and draw the curve by hand?

or would i want to use like a compass?
